Phaleonopsis equestris plays an important role in the development of novelty species and it is frequently used to cross with other hybrids. It has become an important commodity in the international floral trade.
This species is highly variable in morphology as well in the color of its flowers. The following forms occur :[2]
- Phalaenopsis equestris var. alba — a pure white form; lacking yellow pigments on the callus.
- Phalaenopsis equestris var. aurea — white flowers with a solid yellow lip.
- Phalaenopsis equestris var. rosea— flowers with even red petals and sepals; color of the mid-lobe of the lip varies from deep red to light red.
- Phalaenopsis equestris var. leucaspis — small flowers with white edges on pink petals and sepals; mid-lobe of the lip is purple or orange in color with white or yellow callus.
The different colors on the lip are obtained through a different expression of both anthocyanins and carotenoids.[3]
